(See <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/01/18/AR2007011801376.html">http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/01/18/AR2007011801376.html</a> for more background on this topic.) Similar policies are being adopted by smaller medical groups and individual physicians as well.<br /><br />Is this something that you have had experience with? How do you feel about these policies and do you believe they will impact the way drugs are prescribed?<br /><br />Do you have any other comments or feedback on the documentary modules? If so, please post a message.
